Hi everyone – and big hugs! Schools are back and before you know it it will be October break and then the lead up to Christmas. Not that I am rushing our time away, every day is precious, but it is good to look ahead. The weather is in sympathy with the seasons and we can now feel that drop in temperature and see the leaves falling … but we have the exciting news of Adam Dillon coming to preach for our pulpit so that will bring joy to our hearts. Remember to book your seats for 26th September! We already have a new Outreach Worker join our church, Susan Graham and if you were at church last Sunday or watched online you will have heard her speak with so much enthusiasm that it was wonderful.
We still don’t have any plans for starting back with Messy Church.

We still don’t have any plans for starting back with Messy Church. Talks are ongoing in our church about when to start opening the halls for outside lets and for our own church things but it is very complex.
Thinking of you all now we are into Summer and will have time to enjoy a craft so that you can teach others.
When trying it out fold the circle of paper three times then hold the paper triangle tip up. Then draw half a person on the left fold with arm outstretched. Then draw half a figure on right fold with arm outstretched to touch the other arm.
When cutting round the half figures it is the outstretched arms that hold the circle together.
Have a go! You can draw girls, boys, or try drawing a footballer!!!!

Hi everyone, can you believe we are going into the third week of April? We can’t but with the sun shining and the roadmap to recovery unfolding , plus our second vaccines tomorrow , we are feeling upbeat.
There is no thought yet as to when Messy Church will restart but it definitely won’t be before the Summer. We know that your lives will have been strange during this lockdown, infact over this past year, but we hope that you are coping well and also feeling upbeat.
We can’t think of Messy Church but think of Marie Baird and it would seem right at this point to say how much we will miss her from our team. Marie was such a stalwart, one of our three cooks, and nothing was too much trouble for her. Marie sailed in from work, rolled her sleeves up, put on a pinny and gaily set to work in the kitchen, helping provide a wonderful meal for all who came. Invariably after everything was washed up and put away she would then be rushing onto Zumba, Keep fit or some other class. Marie was all go and all smiles. We will all miss her so much. Marie was faith in action and a wonderful role model. For her no more dashing about, God has one more angel in Heaven.
John and I have made another Messy Church video . It wasn’t meant to be as funny as it is but have a go and join in the action.

Messy Church is...
• Messy Church is a form of church for children and adults that involves creativity, celebration and hospitality.

• It typically includes a welcome, a creative time to explore the biblical theme through getting messy; a short celebration time involving story, games and similar; and a sit-down meal together at tables. All elements are for, and should include, people of all ages, adults and children.
• It's all-age.
• It's fun.
• It's a church for people at all stages of their faith journey and of any age - a congregation that is as valuable and worthy of investment as any of your other congregations.
